Vaniegem’s 1967 essay on the hazards to individuality imposed by modern life confronts our ambivalence towards the subjugation we endure to participate, communicate, and be identified in “everyday life.” His issues with city life–isolation, miscommunication, interpellation–remain barriers to contemporary questions of identity, visibility, and the viability of individuals living not as objects of others, but for and towards a future potential Vaneigem located in the self.
